This is a very powerful, simple story. Once the Maasai people of Kenya were powerful warriors. They now live a peaceful life as nomadic herders. For them the cow is life. One day they heard about the tragedy of September 11,2001. The Maasai people thought hard about this terrible thing. They are a people of great heart and they chose to give a gift to the people of the United States.
